SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Turning a written implementation plan into working code requires manually tracking dozens of tasks, dependencies, and validation steps, which is error-prone and easy to lose track of. This Skill automates the execution of a spec-kit task breakdown so every task in tasks.md is processed in the correct order. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Checklist Gatekeeping: Scans all checklist files in the feature directory and halts execution if incomplete items remain, asking the user before proceeding. - Phase-Based Task Execution: Parses tasks.md for phases, dependencies, and parallel markers, then executes setup, tests, core, integration, and polish tasks in order following a TDD approach. - Project Setup Verification: Detects the project's technology stack and creates or verifies ignore files such as .gitignore, .dockerignore, and .eslintignore. - Extension Hooks: Runs mandatory and optional before/after implementation hooks defined in .specify/extensions.yml. - Use Case: After generating a task breakdown with /speckit-tasks, run this Skill to implement the entire feature, with progress reported after each task and completed tasks marked [X] in tasks.md. ## Quick Start Run the speckit-implement skill to execute all tasks in tasks.md for the current feature.

FAQPage Schema
How do I execute a spec-kit tasks.md implementation plan?▼

Run the speckit-implement skill from the repository root of a spec-kit project. It reads tasks.md, plan.md, and related docs, then executes each phase in order, marking completed tasks as [X] in the tasks file.

What happens if checklists are incomplete before implementation?▼

The skill scans all files in the checklists directory and counts completed versus incomplete items. If any checklist has incomplete items, it displays a status table and stops to ask whether you want to proceed anyway.

Does speckit-implement require a specific project structure?▼

Yes, it requires a spec-kit project with a .specify directory containing scripts like check-prerequisites.sh and a feature directory with tasks.md. If tasks are missing, it suggests running /speckit-tasks first.

How does the skill handle parallel and sequential tasks?▼

Tasks marked with [P] can run in parallel, while tasks affecting the same files run sequentially. If a non-parallel task fails, execution halts; for parallel tasks, successful ones continue and failures are reported.

What are extension hooks in spec-kit implementation?▼

Hooks are commands defined in .specify/extensions.yml under hooks.before_implement or hooks.after_implement. Mandatory hooks are executed automatically, while optional hooks are displayed for the user to run manually.
